A coastal, smoky Bowmore with ashes, smoked lemons, brine and seaweed, delivering above-average peat character at the expense of fruitiness.
A rugged Highland Park with sherry character, offering dried apricot, charred pineapple, minty smoke, leafy notes and a long, earthy finish.
Highly drinkable, with unique fruity notes, balanced dryness and a lovely grapey touch; rather excellent overall.
A punchy, flavour-packed whisky with orchard fruits, coconut, vanilla cake and peach, balanced by citrus, ginger, oak spice and a long, tangy finish.
Bright orchard fruits, peach and pineapple meet grassy, mineral and grapefruit notes, creating a vibrant whisky with a sweet yet sharply green balance.
Mineral and saline notes mingle with candied cherries, citrus, gingerbread and caramel, making this decent whisky despite being an atypical Clynelish.
A syrupy, fruity Inchmurrin with raspberries, lychee and jammy apricots, balanced by salty nuts, though the sherry influence could be better integrated.
A delightful, quintessential single malt with waxy, fruity notes of quince, green pineapple and apricot, though it stops just short of excellence.
Quite a stunner with a decadent mouthfeel, above average complexity and a lovely combination of fruit and funk.
A great combination of elegant smoke and minerals, almost tropical fruits and above-average complexity.
Vibrant and dazzling, with wild apples, fresh mint, salted citrons, olives and green peppercorns, finishing long, briny and lovely.
A fine, understated whisky with green fruit, lemon and barley notes that is best enjoyed neat, as water makes it retreat.
A taut, oily whisky with basalt, fresh tobacco and seawater notes, finishing long, saline, peppery and wonderfully acetic.
Fresh, sharp and invigorating, with lime, grapefruit, mustard and oysters, this lovely dram lets its maritime character shine.
An absolutely gorgeous exotic fruit juice: magnificent, fresh, dazzling and poetic, with papaya, passion fruit, mango and banana.
An old cask that’s become complex and a little complicated, with vibrant tropical fruit, coconut and orange notes balanced by gentle spices.
A sherry-led whisky with old walnuts, shoe polish and bitters, turning peppery and austere but rewarding for those who enjoy bitter flavors.
